NEW DELHI: Imagine someone predicting the 9/11 attack on the
World Trade Center in the US two years before the terror strike!
Such a forecast was part of an analysis of the weaknesses of
the American military system by two Chinese military planners,
who also identified Osama bin Laden as one of the likely perpetrators
of a possible attack.
The officials, Qiao Liang and Wang Xiangsui, who were in service
at that time, made the forecast in the book "Unrestricted
Warfare" written in 1999, which has now beenpublished in
India, several years after being translated into English for the
CIA, the Defense Intelligence Agency and other US national security
departments.
The officials, who were then senior colonels, said, "Actually,
with the next century having still not yet arrived, the American
military has already encountered trouble from insufficient frequency
bandwidth brought on by the above-mentioned types of enemies.

Whether it be the intrusion of hackers, a major explosion at
the World Trade Center, or a bombing attack by Osama bin Laden,
all of these greatly exceed the frequency bandwidths understood
by the American military.
The American military is naturally inadequately prepared to deal
with this type of enemy psychologically, in terms of measures
and especially as regards military thinking and the methods of
operation derived from this," they said.
The US was an area of major focus in the book, which proposed
tactics for developing countries like China and measures to compensate
for their military inferiority vis-a-vis America in a possible
hi-tech war.
